What a month it

has been! Here

are some

highlights.

Name Change:

ANHLC will soon

be officially known as ‘’Neighbourhood

Houses Victoria.’’ This newsletter

provides details on the background work

we will do prior to the renaming. The new

name has been warmly received by

members and external stakeholders.

Conference: We continue to receive

positive feedback about this year’s

conference. It will not surprise you to

hear that we are already laying the plans

for the 2016 conference. Let us know if

you would something in particular on the

2016 program.

Deductible Gift Recipient (DGR)

opportunities: Victoria hosts the

Australian Neighbourhood House and

Centre Association (ANHCA) Public Fund

for DGR ‘service’ which overseas the

administration of grant applications

through ANHCA and promotes the

ANHCA Public Fund for DGR to

Neighbourhood Houses. The number of

applications is steadily increasing and

more importantly, so are the successful

ones! ANHLC (soon to be known as

Neighbourhood Houses Victoria!) plans

to produce a publication of inspirational

examples from across the state on how

Neighbourhood Houses have attracted

support from philanthropic groups and

what the impact has been for our

communities. If your Neighbourhood

House has a story you would like to

ANHLC name change

What is in a name? A great deal

according to ANHLC’s membership!

At a Special General Meeting of members

at the ANHLC annual conference in May, a

decision was made to

change the name of the

Victorian peak body for

Neighbourhood Houses

from the Association of

Neighbourhood Houses

and Learning Centres

(ANHLC) to

Neighbourhood Houses

Victoria. A big thanks to

all those who took the time to vote – either

at the annual conference or by proxy.

There was overwhelming support for the

change.

Why the name change?

There were a number of factors driving

the decision to hold a Special General

Meeting to change our name. Most

stemmed from one of the goals outlined in

ANHLC’s Strategic Plan 2013 – 2015: to

raise our profile. Informal consultations

with the members, along with a series of

discussions with membership partners

and stakeholders clearly demonstrated

some of the issues with the existing name.

ANHLC’s marketing and communications

survey with members indicated that

members thought a name change was a

great idea or had no objections to a name

change.

What will be the outcome of the name

change?

The name change is

part of the

implementation of the

Strategic Plan: to raise

our profile amongst

internal stakeholders

(the members) as well

as external

stakeholders (for

example, other not-for-profit

organisations, government departments,

other peak bodies, philanthropy, etc).

With our access to DGR status through

the ANHCA Public Fund for DGR, ANHLC

is also seeking to raise its profile with the

philanthropic community.

When will the change take effect?

A number of legal and administrative

processes need to be followed, and the

website updated (changes to its design

as well as further web development so

that the website can be properly viewed

on mobile devices), before the name

change is official. There are plans for an

official launch in the coming months. Stay

tuned!

85% of members who

responded to an online survey

on ANHLC’s marketing and

communications indicated that

that a name change was a great

idea or they had no objections

to a name change.

Why did the membership vote for a name change for ANHLC?

1. The name ’Association of Neighbourhood Houses and Learning

Centres’ was lengthy and often shorted to an acronym (ANHLC) which

proved difficult to understand and remember

2. ANHLC had no reference to Victoria,.

3. We have the potential to raise more funds through the Philanthropic

sector with access to DGR status. Our public profile is significant in

promoting why funding bodies should support our sector.

ANHCA Public Fund for DGR

What does the ANHCA Public

Fund for DGR mean?

The ANHCA Public Fund for

DGR means Neighbourhood

Houses do not need to have

DGR status in their own right

to receive tax deductible

donations and apply for funds

from philanthropic

foundations/trusts and

corporates requiring DGR

status. Instead,

Neighbourhood Houses can

use the ANHCA Public Fund to

apply and receive funds.

ANHCA Public Fund for DGR

Fundraising for your Neighbourhood

House just got a whole lot more

exciting and easier! Why? Because of the

ANHCA Public Fund for DGR.

The ANHCA Public Fund for DGR means

that Neighbourhood Houses do not need

to have DGR status in their own right to

receive tax deductible donations from

individuals and businesses and apply for

funds from philanthropic foundations/

trusts and corporates. Instead,

Neighbourhood Houses can use the

ANHCA Public Fund as a vehicle to apply

and receive funds.

When was the last time your

Neighbourhood House received a tax

deductible donation from an

individual or business?

Unless your Neighbourhood House has

DGR status in its own right, you may never

have received a tax deductible donation

from an individual or business. To be

eligible to receive tax deductible

donations, apply to the ANHCA Public

Fund for DGR and fill out the ‘general

donations’ form available at http://

www.anhca.asn.au/content/anhca-public-

fund-dgr

Which Neighbourhood Houses

have received tax deductible

donations?

San Remo Neighbourhood Centre,

NSW received a $2,000 tax deductible

donation to establish a community

restaurant.

Port Melbourne Neighbourhood

House, VIC received a $2,000 tax

deductible donation to assist with the

annual Port Melbourne Community

carnival event.

When was the last time your

Neighbourhood House received funds

from a philanthropic trust/foundation

or corporation?

According to the

Neighbourhood House

survey of 2014, only 11%

of Neighbourhood Houses

report philanthropic

funding as a source of

income.

In 2015, the approx. 5,000 philanthropic

organisations in Australia are expected to

give away $1 billion to community

projects. Using the ANHCA Public Fund

for DGR, your Neighbourhood House’s

next community project could be one of

these. Simply apply to the ANHCA Public

Fund for DGR by filling out the form

available at http://www.anhca.asn.au/

content/anhca-public-fund-dgr

Don’t forget to contact ANHCA first to

discuss your project idea and confirm

your Neighbourhood House is eligible to

apply.

A number of Neighbourhood Houses

across Australia have been successful in

applying for funds from philanthropic

foundations/trusts and

corporates.

Homework Club in action.

Now that your Neighbourhood House

has access to deductible gift recipient

(DGR) status through the ANHCA Public

Fund for DGR, you will be able to apply

for funds from philanthropic trusts/

foundations and corporates requiring

DGR status to deliver and maintain

meaningful community projects.

There is no magical secret to writing a

successful grant application. That said,

the following tips will increase the

chances of your grant application being

a winning one!

Philanthropy tips

Tip 2: Research the philanthropic

trust/foundation and corporate

Has the philanthropic trust/foundation or

corporate funded Neighbourhood Houses

in the past? Understanding the projects

they have supported in the past can give

you some clues as to the types of projects

they fund. You might find that learning

about other projects helps you to develop

and/or refine your project idea further.

Tip 1: Read the guidelines carefully

It can be tempting to launch into the

writing of the application without reading

carefully through the guidelines. This is

especially the case when the deadline is

looming! However, reading through the

guidelines can save you a lot of time. It

would be disappointing to respond to the

application questions only to realise that

the project and/or your Neighbourhood

House is ineligible to apply.

July 2015

Win the next grant you apply for

Tip 3: Speak to the contact person at the

philanthropic trust/foundation

The name and phone number of the grant

program contact person is there for a

reason – to be contacted. Touch base with

this person prior to submitting the

application to discuss the project you

would like to have funded and to get any

questions you might have answered.

Following the submission of your

application, you might like to telephone

this person again to confirm they have

received the application.

Tip 4: Obtain additional funding

sources

Who else can your Neighbourhood House

partner with to develop and deliver the

project? Consider ways to include other

organisations in the project and whether

they can contribute support, in-kind or

financially. Not only will this benefit your

project, it will also be attractive to a

philanthropic trust/foundation or

corporate.

Tip 5: Present a realistic budget

Just because Neighbourhood Houses are

expert at delivering projects on a shoe-

string budget does not mean you should

request very little in the way of funding. If

you do this, the philanthropic trust/

foundation and corporate you are

applying to may question the ability of the

project to meet its intended objectives

which will jeopardise the likelihood your

project will be funded. If you are required

to submit a budget with your application,

make sure the budget is:

Accurate and realistic – do not

underestimate the time and resources

required to meet the project’s objectives.

Cutting corners with the budget in an

attempt to make your application more

competitive will not necessarily increase

the likelihood that your application will be

successful.

Include overheads including insurances,

Workcover, rent, equipment hire, office

supplies, etc) as well as in-kind support

including staff and volunteer time, as well

as room-hire, office space, administrative

support, etc. If the philanthropic trust/

foundation or corporate has not set

amount to cost volunteer hours, go with a

base rate of $20 per hour.

Tip 6: Be detailed

Attention to detail is very important in a

grant application and will increase the

likelihood of your application being

successful. Think through how your

project will be delivered including

timeframe, outputs and personnel

required. Will your Neighbourhood

House/Centre hire new staff to run the

project, or can it be delivered by existing

staff and volunteers? What are the

intended outcomes of the project? Be as

ANHLC NEWS

www.anhlc.asn.au www.anhlc.asn.au 8

Philanthropy tips cont.

specific as you can be for each aspect

of the project. For example, with

respect to outcomes, state the number

of expected enrolments in a course,

attendees at an event, the number of

people ‘job ready,’ etc as a result of

the project. Where possible, identify

the possible risks associated with the

project and suggest strategies to

effectively mitigate those risks.

Tip 7: Be clear about the need for the

project and why your

Neighbourhood House is the

appropriate organisation to deliver

this project

Do not assume the philanthropic trust/

foundation or corporate understands

the problem your project seeks to

address. Clearly outline the need for

the project and why your

Neighbourhood House is the most

appropriate organisation to deliver the

project.

Tip 8: Use Plain English

In most instances, your Neighbourhood

House will know more about the issue

the project seeks to address than the

philanthropic trust/foundation or

corporate. It is therefore important that

the application is written in Plain

English and free from jargon. This will

make them easier and faster to read.

Tip 9: Use statistics and facts

A good application includes statistics

and factual information on the issue the

project seeks to address. Data

collected on your Neighbourhood

House that relates to the project can

support the application, as can data

from the Australian Bureau of Statistics

(ABS). The local council your

Neighbourhood House is situated in

may also have collected useful data to

support the application.

Tip 10: Proofread your application

Once you have completed the application,

ask at least two people (one from within

and another external to your

Neighbourhood House) to read through

the application. You might like them to

indicate whether the project’s intended

goals are easy to understand and whether

the answers provided effectively address

the questions asked.

Occasional Care Update

ANHLC campaigned along with other

community based organisations for the

reinstatement of the Occasional Care

Program. This was ultimately successful

and the announcement late last year was

welcome news. The National Occasional

Care Program is jointly funded by the

Commonwealth and Victorian

Governments and administered through

the Department of Education and

Training.

Occasional Care Program – Phase 1

All successful organisations should

have received a letter from the

Department on 13 May 2015

regarding Program funding.

Department’s regional offices will

contact successful Neighbourhood

Houses in June/July regarding

service agreement arrangements to

allow funding to start flowing.

Funding will be backdated to 1

February 2015.

The Department expects that the

first payment will be made in the

financial year 2015-2016 (First

quarter).

The Department has advised ANHLC

that the exact timing of the first

payment will depend on whether

services require a variation to a

current service agreement or a new

agreement established.

Apparently the delay in payments is

due to the Department’s Service

Agreement Management System

(SAMS) being closed, we are

advised that the service agreements

will be progressed once SAMS

opens again in July.

National Partnership Agreement on the

National Quality Agenda

A Review of the National Partnership

Agreement on the National Quality

Agenda for early childhood education

and care is currently underway (2014

Review). The federal government is

including all states and territories in this

process and their stated aim is to ensure

improved quality in education and care

services and that this is being met in the

most efficient and effective way. The

Review will identify what is working well,

areas for improvement and any

unintended consequences resulting from

implementation of the National Quality

Framework.

A consultation Regulation Impact

Statement with options for changes to the

National Quality Framework was

released in 2014 and consultations on

proposed changes were held from

November 2014 to January 2015.

Through this consultation consideration

was given to expanding the National

Quality Framework to include occasional

childcare services (excluding those

provided for parents attending

conferences, sport and leisure activities

or shopping), playschools and mobile

services.

The Department of Education and

Training has informed ANHLC that States

and Territories are continuing work on

preparing final recommendations for the

Education Council’s consideration.

If you would like any further clarification

on any of the above please contact the

Department directly or email through

your questions to anhlc@anhlc.asn.au

with subject line Task Group on

Occasional Child Care and the ANHLC

Task Group will do their best to seek out

responses.

World Environment Week 2015

World Environment Day

To celebrate World Environment Day on 5

June, we shared some ways in which

Neighbourhood Houses are creating more

environmentally friendly communities.

As the stories below demonstrate,

Neighbourhood Houses are eco-warriors

in the local communities in which they are

based. From establishing community

gardens to selling recycled goods,

Neighbourhood Houses play a leading role

in championing a more sustainable

Victoria.

-

Morwell Neighbourhood House runs a

Community Free Store on a regular basis.

Community members are invited to donate

goods they no longer want and shoppers can

take as much as they like for free. The ‘store’

attracts between 80 – 130 people in the 2 hours it

is open. It has many benefits which include

recycling unwanted goods and removing

barriers to buying new goods and is community

owned and driven.

Carlton Neighbourhood Learning Centre’s Future Gardens Project involves transforming

the Centre’s grounds and programs into a model sustainable house and eco-learning centre for

the Carlton Community. The State

Government funded Carlton

Future Gardens Project involves:

Developing a hands-on

sustainability training

program applicable to the

needs and lifestyle of the

community

Transforming the CNLC

garden into an edible,

beautiful, sustainable,

educational sanctuary

Reconfiguring house and

grounds into a water-wise

demonstration site

Developing community and

ESL learning resources for other Neighbourhood Houses and community organisations.

Sustainability in action!

Sunbury Neighbourhood House, in early

2015, with the

support of a

‘Healthy

Together’ Hume

grant, began an

environmental

program

designed to

provide

educational

programs to the

community and

supply the local

community

kitchen with fresh produce to make meals for

people in need. In the future, the team at

Sunbury Neighbourhood House plan on

expanding the program to include healthy

eating workshops using the produce, along

with other sustainability programs.

Farnham Street Neighbourhood Learning Centre, in conjunction with Norfolk Terrace Community Care Unit, received funding from the North West Primary Care Partnership to

design and implement a project based on the Community Garden model at Farnham Street.

Norfolk Terrace is a community based residential rehabilitation program for people

experiencing serious, long-term mental illnesses. It is based in Flemington, a short walk from

Farnham Street, and many residents participate in the programs offered there. The project was

funded to support and encourage Norfolk Terrace clients to grow their own vegetables and

herbs as part of their transition back into independent living.

A permablitz was organised with staff from both centres, residents and other community

volunteers to prepare the grounds for a fresh, new garden. Participants were shown how to

prepare wicking beds and garden beds for long-term crops. After grass removal, path

construction and composting, the area was gradually transformed into a real permaculture

garden. A fruit forest is currently being planned for future implementation.

Farnham Street is running workshops every Friday in the garden with the residents and some

volunteers. The garden workshops will give residents an opportunity to participate in growing

their own produce and learn how this can impact positively on their physical and mental health.

Taylors Hill Neighbourhood House teaches young people how to cook and grow health

food through the Community Garden and

Cooking Program. The participants support

the community garden by placing food scraps

into worm bins, while also learning about

waste minimisation and how to recycle food

and vegetable scraps through composting and

mulching.

Geelong West Neighbourhood House

sustainability and recycling.

Learn Local $4.32 million funding!

In mid June, the Andrews Labor Government announced it will provide $4.32 million in

funding grants to Learn Local organisations across Victoria to deliver more training that

lead to jobs.

There will be 70 grants awarded to Learn Local organisations across Victoria to develop

more effective ways of supporting learners that may have previously struggled with ed-

ucation to develop new

skills and get a job.

Kyneton Community and

Learning Centre will be

using its $47,100 grant to

develop and trial a pre-

accredited program aimed

at building the skills need-

ed by the Victorian horse

racing industry that will

provide learners with a foundation for further study or employment.

The New Entrants to Racing project’s key strength was the involvement of industry part-

ners including Racing Victoria and the Harness Racing Training Centre, along with sup-

port from Macedon Ranges Shire.

The member for Macedon, Mary-Anne Thomas said: “This grant to Kyneton Community

and Learning Centre will enable it to work in partnership with the horse racing industry to

provide training that helps people get a job or study further.”

“Through this funding we’re supporting the local equine industry, which is important to

the Macedon region.”

Shared reading groups

What is a shared reading group?

A shared reading group is a group of

people that meet and read together.

The group leader selects stories or

poems to read aloud and participants

have the option to join in a discussion

about the book or simply listen to the

conversation. Participation in the

group builds community connections

and facilitates relationship building

amongst group members.

What are the benefits of a shared

reading group?

Participation in shared reading

groups can be an effective way to

engage with particular groups of

people including those living with

dementia, those who are isolated

within the community and/or who

have a mental illness or disability. The

shared reading group model is well

suited to Neighbourhood Houses who

are accessed by diverse groups of

people, and is low cost and easy to

implement.

If you are interested in running a

shared reading group at your

Neighbourhood House, here are some

tips to ensure participants get the

most out of the sessions:

Welcoming environment – the

location for a reading experience is

important, and group members need to

feel physically comfortable as well as

emotionally safe and content.

Straight forward plots – if sharing a

fictional piece, choose one with a

simple plot free of ambiguity and

complexity, and without any secondary

stories or plots.

Practise – spend a few minutes

practising a piece before sharing it

with a group – this will help you read

more confidently and clearly.

Look for a good ‘read aloud’ factor –

some pieces just cry out to be read

aloud. Select a piece which sounds

wonderful aloud and can be read in an

interesting and relaxed fashion.

If you would

like to know

more about

‘shared

reading’

here are

some

resources:

Anne Vize is the author of ‘Reading in

the Moment – activities and stories to

share with adults with dementia’ and ‘A

Pocketful of Poetry – poems to share’.

Houses interested in running similar

Go Digi—improving digital literacy

Earlier this year, the Federal

Government established a Digital

Transformation Office to move 80%

of government services to ‘go

digital first’ in order to save money,

time and cut red tape. But in the

push to go digital first, we run the

risk of leaving people behind.

The Go Digi national digital

literacy program aims to

address this by helping

300,000 Australians

improve their digital skills

and realise their online

potential over the next 2

years.

The Go Digi team held a valuable

workshop about digital literacy and

digital inclusion at the ANHLC

conference in Geelong in May.

The workshop held discussed the

imperative of getting online in a

meaningful way, the Go Digi

program and how it could support

existing digital literacy programs and

help start new ones.

During the workshop, there was a

lively discussion about the challenges

of using technology. One brave soul

even admitted they loved their iPad

more than their husband!

Since the ANHLC

conference, more

Neighbourhood Houses

have signed up as Go Digi

network partners.

Over 20 Neighbourhood

Houses around Australia, from Lake

Grace in WA to Rainbow in Victoria,

have registered so far.
